SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00041 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 I. Background In 1989, Congress enacted the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act (FIRREA) 1 in response to the failure of the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC), which insured the deposits of insolvent savings & loan institutions. Section 308 of FIRREA established goals for preserving and promoting minority depository institutions.2 When enacted, FIRREA § 308 applied only to the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), successor to FSLIC.3 Those agencies developed various initiatives, such as training, technical assistance and educational programs, aimed at preserving federally insured banks and savings institutions that meet FIRREA’s definition of a minority depository institution (MDI).4 In 2010, Congress enacted the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd Frank Act).5 Section 367(4)(A) of the Dodd Frank Act amended FIRREA § 308 to require the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Fed) to take steps to preserve existing MDIs and encourage the establishment of new ones.6 In addition, Dodd Frank Act § 367(4)(B) requires these agencies, along with FDIC, to each submit an annual report to Congress describing actions it has taken to carry out FIRREA § 308.7 In 2013, the NCUA Board proposed an Interpretive Ruling and Policy Statement 13–1 (proposed IRPS) to establish a Minority Depository Institution Preservation Program (Program) to encourage the preservation of MDIs.8 As proposed, the MDI program would be administered by NCUA’s Office of Minority and Women Inclusion (OMWI) and would consist of outreach efforts, various forms of technical assistance and educational opportunities to benefit eligible credit unions. 1 Public Law 101–73, 103 Stat. 183 (Aug. 9, 1989). Title III, § 308, 103 Stat. 353 note re ‘‘Preserving Minority Ownership of Minority Financial Institutions,’’ 12 U.S.C. 1463 note. 3 Id. § 1463 note (a). OCC and the Fed also initiated MDI programs to comply with the spirit of FIRREA § 308, even though neither was originally required to do so. OTS became part of OCC on July 21, 2011. OCC now administers the OTS MDI Program. 4 12 U.S.C. 1463 note (b). 5 Public Law 111–203, 124 Stat. 1376 (July 21, 2010); 12 U.S.C. 5301 et seq. 6 12 U.S.C. 1463 note (a). 7 Id. § 1463 note (c). 8 78 FR 46374 (July 31, 2013). 2 Id.

other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to 
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that
